Your CPU temperature is in my opinion a little better than average and your GPU temperature is pretty much right on average.

Those temps are fine.
 
About 80C for the GPU and 75C for the CPU. This is when you need to start looking for a better cooling option.
Remember prolonged running of either the CPU or the GPU beyond the threshold limits could cause hardware failure. But it is only prolonged use at those temps, if they touch that those temps and come down, it's pretty ok.
